Salt & vinegar crisps

120 replies

Aibu to feel that Salt & vinegar crisps are disgusting? I don't eat them but my DS does. The smell makes me absolutely wrench.. Smell like some toxic rancid window cleaning products. No other flavours of crisps bother me but Salt & vinegar crisps just make me feel so ill, just the smell. I need to leave the room when anyone is eating them, then I need to open windows and wipe down all door handles and furniture etc afterwards. And don't even get me started on the grease stains made by my rather messy Ds. Anyone with me on this?

YABU

Salt & vinegar are the best

Except for Skips

Posted too soon! Most crisps sold in the UK definitely adhere to the blue for salt & vinegar and green for cheese & onion rule.

YABU. Cheese & onion or Worcester sauce are far worse. Salt & vinegar crisps are amazing for a crisp butty.

I asked DH to get me a bag of Quavers from the corner shop as I always have a packet of the cheese flavour as a weekend treat and he came back with prawn cocktail flavour. 😢

I can’t believe you even think like that.

is thismylofenow there is a multi episode podcast all about the green blue mystery/myth/outrage (I am in the outrage camp).

@Bobbiepin

Hands down the best flavour. YABVU
This! Although I like M&S pepper ones too.
Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 21/02/2021 20:55

This is hands down the worst thing I've ever read on MN, OP! Salt and vinegar is the best flavour. I love them. Fortunately nobody else here likes them at all so I get them all.

Blondeshavemorefun · 21/02/2021 20:57

Weirdo 😂😂

S&v snd c&o are the best crisp flavour

HTH1 · 21/02/2021 20:57

Mmmm....salt n vinegar crisps.

LadyfromtheBelleEpoque · 21/02/2021 20:58

Yeah - I’m tempted to agree with @Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g

Sort yourself out, OP. Shocking attitude.

aLilNonnyMouse · 21/02/2021 21:04

I wont eat them out of the packet but they do make the best crisp butty.

Oh thank goodness. I must just be Walkers brand then. (its is so very wrong though....)
BettysButtons · 22/02/2021 06:08

I used to love crisps especially walkers cheese and onion.
Every packet I buy nowadays (in any flavour it seems) is either way too salty or has far too much flavouring. They’re just horrible!
I sometimes buy Smiths with the little blue sachet though!

isthismylifenow · 22/02/2021 06:10

Wrong and Right

This is one way to get me all fired up first thing in the morning Smile

OhWhyNot · 22/02/2021 06:23

They are only nice when they are so sour they make you wince

Otherwise they are pointless

PeggyHill · 22/02/2021 06:25

Don't be ridiculous. They are the best flavour

Beautiful3 · 22/02/2021 06:53

Yes! The smell is over powering, like a cleaning product!!! I'm a ready salted girl.

Kolo · 22/02/2021 14:20

How do you feel about pickled onion monster munch?!

So the OP won't come back to answer this crucial question from @WellTidy? Probably a troll.
